What the business is, and whether it's a good one at a fair price.
Operates a portfolio of television news channels across multiple Indian languages under the News18 brand and runs digital news properties anchored by Moneycontrol. The bulk of revenue comes from selling advertising slots to corporate and government advertisers, with the Q1FY27 update noting that non-government advertising fell over 10% year-on-year amid weak corporate spending and the West Asia conflict. A second revenue line comes from paid subscriptions to Moneycontrol Pro, which crossed 1 million paid subscribers, alongside newer lines in Moneycontrol Fintech and Creator18 that the FY26 update describes as scaling up. The company sits at #1 in Indian TV news with 13.8% viewership share and leads digital news with 360 million monthly reach. It acquired News18 Marathi for Rs 25 crore in October 2025 to fold a Marathi-language channel into the parent (appointed merger date April 1, 2026). The cost base is dominated by employee costs at 37.4% of revenue and other operating expenses at 60.6%, with depreciation at 6.2% and capex at 2.4%.
